Chapter 491 — A Love That Crosses Species
The Beast-Taming Craftsman · Page 3 of 6
The Ice Dragon was stunned. Damn it, this little princess of the Winter Water Snake clan had serious problems of her own.
Shi Jin looked up the little princess of the Winter Water Snake clan's information.
[Race]: Winter Water Snake
[Attribute]: Water, Ice
[Race Rank]: Low-tier Overlord
[Growth Rank]: Commander-class
[Description]: Daughter of the Winter Snake Overlord, possessed of astonishing talent—by one year old she had already grown to Commander-class.
Proud by nature.
Shi Jin: ???
"Why is this one also a year old?! Don't tell me..."
"Ah, yes, yes, yes—the little princess of the Winter Water Snake clan was also born thanks to the Time-Brewed Fruit from Lord Shi Jin. The Time-Brewed Fruits you sent set off a regular baby boom in Mirage Abyss City back then."
"And taking that opportunity, the Dragon Palace even produced a great many breeding models—not just one litter, but two, three!"
"Those overlords who had children in their old age—I recall they all sent gifts to Lord Shi Jin. You didn't receive them...?"
Shi Jin: ...
He had a poor memory.
Maybe the gifts were just too paltry.
If they'd sent legendary resources, he'd have remembered for sure!
The Ice Dragon looked at Cen Yu. So, was there something off about offspring born from Time Accumulation Fruits?
Why did everyone seem to like cross-species romance?
Still, that talent did sound quite impressive.
"So, Minister Shijin, the reason you asked for the records on the Turtle Clan and the Snake Clan... what is it you plan to do?" the Longevity Turtle asked.
Shi Qi fell silent for a moment, then looked at him and said, "Me?"
"I intend to cultivate two new beasts. The races I've chosen are the Turtle and the Snake."
"What do you think?"
The Longevity Turtle's eyes went wide.
His face was a portrait of disbelief.
Holy shit.
The World Legend—the one who had defeated the Grand Prince, Second Prince, and Third Prince of Tingxue City, the strongest beast tamer of Blue Star's younger generation—Lord Shijin was planning to cultivate new beasts?
And he meant to contract the Turtle Clan and Snake Clan of Shenyuan City?!
"What, what, what—is that for real?" The Ice Dragon was equally astounded. "What's worth cultivating about turtles and snakes? How about you take my goddaughter instead?"
Shi Li: "No."
Ice Dragon: "Ah."
Shi Li: "Let's leave the other records for later. I plan to first go and see that Longevity Turtle and Winter Water Snake of yours—the ones who want to pursue a cross-species romance."
The Dragon King of Ice and the Turtle Chancellor exchanged glances.
...
A short while later.
Shijin descended upon the undersea prison. After calling out a greeting to the Golden Dragon King from afar, he entered.
Deep within the undersea prison, the Golden Dragon King's mouth twitched, though he came out to greet him all the same.
The last time the Golden Dragon Prince had requested permission to challenge Shijin, he had agreed—yet what returned was a sullen, brooding son.
And he had even lost the faith of the subjects in his territory as forfeit.
What a sin.
"What wind blows Minister Shijin here?" the Golden Dragon King said, coiling in the air.
Shi Yan chuckled. "Nothing much. I'm here to see a second-generation inmate held on Level 0.5. Go about your business, Golden Dragon King—I can manage on my own."
"A second-generation? Which one?"
"The offspring of the Turtle Chancellor of the Thunder Dragon Palace."
"That one?" The Golden Dragon King had some recollection—after all, it hadn't been locked up long.
Besides, these second-generation inmates required extra care.
The environment here was harsh, after all; they couldn't truly be allowed to come to harm.
Moments later, Shijin arrived outside that cell and, without alerting anyone within, directed his attention inside.
